    Of course, every one of those "reasons" are more ludicrous than the idea he's telling the truth. At least among the sane.

    Part of a popular phrase used in the Oval Office during the 1990s. See references for: "Is you gonna kiss it?" in the Arkansas Presidential Library.

    Someone selling conspiracy theories on everything probably shouldn't call any possible reasons ludicrous.

    Thanks for posting. Obama's been a good president.

    Dershowitz is right. BLM is anti-Semitic. Will any Dem call them out for this, or pay a price for continuing to associate with them?

    I find it ironic that conservatives, who fancy themselves the most patriotic Americans, are eager to talk down America whenever they get the chance. ... This assumption that the country is condemned to decline is based not on evidence, but on the schadenfreude that some people enjoy in fantasizing that their pessimism will be validated.

    It is a curiously unremarked oddity that beneath the aggrandizing, tough-guy swagger of the Trumps, Limbaughs and O’Reillys, today’s conservatives are a swooning passel of neurotics who see every temporary setback, every cultural trend they disapprove of and every social change that most humane people would call progress, as evidence that America is inevitably doomed.

    The right wing is very preoccupied with cowardly, xenophobic isolationism these days. They seem to believe that globalization will stop, manufacturers will stop using technology and white middle-class neighborhoods from the Leave It To Beaver set will begin to sprout up if only we can build a wall around the country and put an end to trade agreements.

    Meanwhile, Obama hit the bullseye with another drone strike.

    Amazingly, that's not true. If you go back and read about some of the candidates in the early days... some of it is a real shitshow.

    This is a good read about the rigged election nonsense. Basically, Trump is an excuse-making coward and desperately looking for ways to justify the beat down he's about to receive even if it means inciting violence.

    I've heard people can vote via Twitter now, so you really don't even need to get up.
